Pinocchio (1940) Courvoisier cel of Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket. One of the most charming Courvoisiers we've seen depicting Pinocchio facing his conscience, Jiminy Cricket, as they turn toward each other with mirrored expression. This is a moment in the scene where Pinocchio leans over to listen to Jiminy's advice. Courvoisier background has beautiful tones airbrushed in hues of pink and green. This piece is definitely among the gallery owner's favorites. Framing was done prior to its arrival at WWA thus the list price is reflective of the art only--the piece comes with the frame pictured. There is no change in price due to the frame--it can be de-framed upon request at purchase but will not change the price of the piece. The entire framed piece measures 17.5" by 19". The white spots in the images are the result of the scanning process. There is some paint separation in the yellow of Jiminy's hat and in his tie, suit and arm. You have to look really, really closely to notice it. Some glue residue from the cels is slightly noticeable on the left of the flower, and in some areas of the edges of the characters. Pinocchio's feather has split and is attached to the background by Courvoisier. Overall, this piece is in very good condition for its age and the imperfections are not too noticeable- we just want to be very thorough in our descriptions.. The size of the image is 5.5" h x 8" w. US$ 8500 (framed) WDCNN15  Add this piece to your collection for only US$1700 a month.
